Lamar's Day OUT!!

It's been months, since Lamar was physically able ~and willing, to venture out of this house! Most trips have been from house to Drs. offices. {I've Missed my "go man"!}
Today ~ all the wonderful Prayers, raised up for him, came to fruition.
The last wk. or so, I've noticed he walked about the house...w/o his walker. Then....he said yesterday, he wanted to go to Waffle House, after blood vampire was finished, at Diabetic Dr. office. !!
I was EXcited! Told him, Ok....but ya gotta "practice", with only the Cane around here today. So, yesterday, he did that...and he was looking gOOd! {I did suggest, raise the cane height, 1 notch, so he wasn't bending over to walk.} It worked, he stood tall and got about very well.
Today, Lamar was able to eat breakfast @ Waffle House (a fav place for him)....Ofcourse, it had to be documented ~ 'cause this was a most HAPPY day, beginning our New Year in the best way....
 Lamar & his Cane....on the way inside
 ..settling into booth {legs cooperated!}
 Sweetest Face of one HAPPY man...got that Coffee!!
So....double Waffles n Sausage!
Lamar really enjoyed his 'trip'...and I pray, there's more outings to come for him.
...made an ol' wife's Heart Smile...

They were All on my mind & in my heart, tho.} 2 even mailed gifts!! TY to Betty & Charlene. Pam's deco was to the moon!

LIFE Lessons .....Learning Again !!

Image
This blog is a confession and statement of "new" learning for me. The "darkness" of an "acute" illness, and the healing from that, has been a reality check in full measure! I'm a Believer. I'm one who praises God, prays all the time, and am confident of the Love of my Father. That statement made -- I am still filled w/human nature and it's quircks! We all get "comfortable" in our everyday lives and routines. Well. Mine has been blown apart w/this "healing" process.!! It's going much more slowly than I would desire, and so much seems more difficult, and "lost" a bit. There are books written, quotes out there, and we all kinda believe --don't sweat the "small" stuff. Pfffft! It's the "small" stuff that's giving me such tough issues right now. Go figure! Examples: energy to "move" and do my everyday routines; insecurity/discomfort w/the thought of driving a car (not

the "REST OF THE STORY"......

I did soooo Love Paul Harvey. His stories were always so interesting.....and, he researched to bring a story to an often unknown ending. The "rest of the story" always let ya know.....the circle was closed on that topic for him. In that fashion....I wanted to do this blog. I love photography. I'm quite a happy amateur! Now, with Pinterest I get to see unlimited talent. This picture was one that "drew me in"....After I pinned it.....there were like 30+ other people who loved it too! This picture received the most pins on my boards. Just look at it....Never did try to track down the photographer. Only went as far as where the pin originated. Browsing pinterest boards is a fun pastime. I enjoy "following" pictures/quotes and such as far as I dare. In browsing.....I "fell into" a site. The photographer is TIMOTHY WALKER. A very eclectic range of photos. Behold! There was this picture among them. I gasped! (He has several other photos
